Anyone tuning a Mini or other A Series engine would do well to consider forged con rods as part of the upgrade. Mini Spares has it’s own brand forged con rods as part of its EVO high preformance collection.
Minispares steel connecting rods are machined by Arrow Precision Engineering from double-air re-melted 817M40 forgings. They weigh just 445g per rod.
The new X rod design maintains stiffness whilst reducing weight where it is not required. Naturally, ARP 2000 5/16” bolts are included, as are Colsibro small end bushes.
An automated shot peening process increases the rod’s fatigue strength and durability. The connecting rods are balanced end-over-end, sorted into matched sets and laser marked for identification before being crack detected. CMM inspection is then carried out in a temperature controlled quality department. Final visual checks are conducted before the con rods are packed in specially designed protective boxes for shipment.
The rods shown are part number C-AEG624EVO (5.75” long, 1.625” journal, 20.66mm pin) with other sizes available (see website). Retail price per set £964.80 inc VAT

M-Style is now stocking the latest CT Carbon Air Induction Kits to improve performance, dress up the engine bay and add a sporty tone to the induction sound of late model BMWs. The kit shown here is for the BMW M2 OG and M2C; it is a direct replacement for the factory induction system with no drilling or permanent alterations required. The kit will smooth the flow of the induction charge for better breathing. The insulation properties of the carbon fibre helps the air remain cooler and therefore more dense which then delivers more oxygen to the engine for a more efficient burn leading to more power. The kit includes: two stainless steel high-flow air filters, carbon fibre pipework and housings, silicone hose connectors and fasteners.
The manufacturer’s recommended price for the M2 kit is £999, but as an introductory offer the M-Style price is just £899 including VAT and free fitting at its Romford Performance Centre.

Just because a car hasn’t been around for a few years is no reason for GAZ not to make suspension for it. Take the Volvo Amazon for example; not only does GAZ offer GT dampers for the saloon model, but it also offers adjustable dampers for the considerably rarer Estate version.
GAZ fully adjustable GT dampers enable the damping bump and rebound rate to be adjusted to suit the conditions and driving style. Adjustment can be altered by means of an easily accessible knob on the side.
GAZ can set the dampers up with valving for general road use and they will also be suitable for the occasional track slalom and sprint use; alternatively, they can be set up for serious racing use if you so wish.
GAZ GT dampers feature a zinc plated body and have a protective plastic sleeve to keep them looking good and working well for long into the future.
All units are individually tested before leaving the factory and are covered by a two year warranty
GAZ adjustable dampers for the Volvo Amazon can be ordered as: GT6-5000 Front at £63.70 each plus VAT GT7-5120 Rear Saloon £70.64 each plus VAT GT6-5001 Rear Estate £63.70 each plus VAT
